I have 2 node setup using packstack icehouse installation using VXLAN tunnels. Below is my answer file:

If you want just see trafic , run on compute node :-
[root@juno2f21 ~]# ovs-ofctl show br-tun

OFPT_FEATURES_REPLY (xid=0x2): dpid:00003a8f82350f4b

     state:      0

OFPT_GET_CONFIG_REPLY (xid=0x4): frags=normal miss_send_len=0

Next command shows traffic to VXLAN tunnel (2)

[root@juno2f21 ~]# ovs-ofctl dump-flows  br-tun

Thanks, I know this, but why don't i see any traffic on br-int or br-tun when i ping from one VM to another. I only see traffic on tap interface and eth5, when i capture this traffic i don't see any VXLAN header. How do i see VXLAN header in wireshark capture?
